Subject: sysctl extern cleanup: binfmts
From: Dave Young <hidave.darkstar@xxxxxxxxx>
Extern declarations in sysctl.c should be move to their own head file, and
then include them in relavant .c files.
Move core_uses_pid/core_pattern/core_pipe_limit extern declarations to
linux/binfmts.h. suid_dumpable is declared in binfmts.h already.
